A Shifting Landscape

From extravagant industry promises to alarming government statistics, the mixed messages about food today can be exciting, confusing, and often overwhelming. In response, consumers are developing new rules and strategies for what they will—and won’t—consume. As a result, their relationship with food is evolving.

We’ve recently observed a significant shift in consumer attitudes and behaviors. Many are second-guessing manufacturers’ nutritional claims and turning to grassroots advocates, online sources, and retailers for guidance on what healthy truly means. Others are seeking deeper connections with food beyond sustenance, choosing products that help them understand what they’re eating, contribute to sustainability, or foster a sense of community.

How do we know? At Loudtt, our team spends considerable time engaging with people about how they make food decisions. We also observe their behaviors closely.
